Dambulla Project

Introduction
An expansion of Embark’s Sigiriya Project, teams are working closely with the Dambulla Municipal Council authorities to carry out a comprehensive sterilisation and vaccination programme within the area. High traffic areas such as the Dambulla rock temple and other notable cultural sites will also be covered by the project.

Partners
Funded by the Brigitte Bardot Foundation and Embark, the project partners with the Tsunami Animal People Alliance (TAPA) as veterinary service provider. All activities will be carried out in coordination with the regional Tourist Authority, Medical Officers of Health (MoH), and local Public Health Inspectors (PHIs). The project is also looking to garner support from the local hoteliers association.
